Multiple Accounts

I�m referring to yesterday�s thread started by Baiba�

http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=21283

After she had written her list of accounts in the forum, most of them were deleted by Victor or a person he trusts.

Since I found 13 more accounts today which have probably been created by the very same user, I would like to publish my list here, too.

I sincerely hope that all of them will be gone by the time I log in again! ;))

I think this person has a lot time on his/her hands. ..

What I can �t understand is why a person with less than 30 points per account would want to have multiple accounts.

Obviously having several accounts with more than 30 points is a way of cheating the system to gain 30 downloads for each account but this is not the case here.

Perhaps the person is computer-illiterate and created the accounts by mistake and doesn �t know how to delete them.

Has anyone asked?

Or perhaps Jayho - when this person didn �t get enough points - they created a new account and uploaded it again and again.
(shame on me for always expecting the worst!!)

I don �t think these are the people that do the most damage, toothless tigers....no justification, though.

@Joy

Being a new user you �re only allowed to upload 1 printable per day until you reach 30 points and become a premium user. So if you create 10 accounts, it means that you can upload 10 wss per day!! You �ll probably be able to download other people �s work much earlier - so there is a reason for creating so many accounts: it might save you a lot of waiting time. ;))

I don �t belive that someone has multiple accounts...

It �s ilogical!

Hi Topolina, but surely all of the points would go to separate accounts so you wouldn �t actually be able to become a premium user more quickly? Or am I missing something? My brain is a bit melted today with the heat so might well be, if so sorry.

Dear Julia,

This is not about trying to become a premium user with every single account!!

However, when you upload lots of wss, you �ll get points for them which you can use to download other users � wss.

When you create just one account, you can only upload 1 ws per day. But when you have created 10 accounts, you can upload 1 ws per day in each one of these accounts. And if each one of these wss gets downloaded 5 times or so, you �ll have 50 points to spend in no time!

I sincerely hope that my explanations made it clearer for you now. ;))

Best wishes - Silke
